Venezia - Bologna predictions

Venezia managing to pull off a victory here would be quite the upset. They are definitely underdogs, so even the home-field advantage isn’t able to push the odds lower than 4.66 for a home win.

With 1.83 odds for an away win, Bologna have a rather clear path to victory. Still, there’s plenty of room for an upset in a match like this, so other options are still worth considering.

While Venezia’s performance in front of their fans in the last round against Napoli cannot be called an outright success, it was still far above expectations. They were considered clear underdogs going in, but maintained an even score both at half-time and for the final 0:0 result.

Bologna are coming on the back of top-notch performance in their recent home game against Lazio in which they won the game 5:0. Better yet, they were in the lead for most of the match, which only makes the victory more decisive.

Venezia’s home games tend to not feature a lot of goals. Two of their most recent matches at Stadio Pierluigi Penzo ended with less than 2 goals at the end whistle.

This match might present a rare opportunity to go for an Over 4.5 Goals bet. Bologna have netted 9 goals in each of their previous 3 games – which is quite a track record.

Well within the relegation zone, Venezia begin to sweat. Their Serie A status is under doubt and Bologna are coming to Stadio Pierluigi Penzo this Saturday to rub salt into their wounds. With 4.66 betting odds for a home win, it’s highly unlikely the hosts will be able to avoid anything other than another defeat.

The current Serie A campaign is slowly entering its final stages. After 30 games, Bologna sit in 4th just 11 point behind the leaders. With a game against Venezia ahead of them this Saturday, it’s fair to assume the visitors will earn their much-needed three points with no big trouble.

Bologna already won a match against Venezia this season while playing a home game. Even though they won’t have home-field advantage this time, they’re still considered favourites. After all, their previous victory was quite decisive and ended with a considerable lead.

Though it’s a stretch, a Draw bet is likely the best option when it comes to betting on this match. With the odds at 3.63 with Pncl, it’s not exactly the safest of bets – but it’s quite strong when it comes to value.
